Square footage is only half the cost of a Manhattan Beach roof covering; pitch, access and layer count move the number as much. In practice, warranty terms affect the real cost of a Manhattan Beach roof more than the headline figure does. This holds across Los Angeles County. Deck replacement on a Manhattan Beach work is unknown until the tear-off, which is why it belongs in the contract as a per-sheet rate. This holds across Los Angeles County.
